Customer Reviews Columbia PFG Tidal Deflector™ Long Sleeve

I returned the shirt. It was not what I expected. It was a very shiny material and I was looking for something soft. I loved the colors and that is what attracted me at first but it did not feel good and did not look good on me.

Always loved the Columbia light weight sun blocking shirts, but this "deflector" shirt was really weird. The shiny spectacle made the shirt stiff and glittery. To me it seems too shiny and I'm not sure the deflector material even works to keep the sun off. I'll definitely go back to the simple sun shirt.

The fit was very good. The color was acceptable. The reflective material was somewhat shiny, but workable. But the combination of the reflective material and the large white letters of Columbia down the arm was too much for me. The Columbia letters look like iron-ons. I returned the shirt regrettably because I liked the fit.

I'm sure the shirt does as it says (reflective). But really looks silly on. Teen son asked if I was wearing latex! Returning immediately.

Size looks like for men. But I ordered for women. Too loose on me

I read all the favorable reviews before buying this so I thought I'd give it a try. I couldn't get past the fact that it looks like a shiny rubber wetsuit. I guess if you want it for back country hiking or in the desert or out fishing, it will probably be perfect for you but I do half my walking in and around the city and walking paths and it wasn't what I wanted to walk around in.

This shirt is comfortable but I would imagine the tiny shiny reflective spots just reflect even more rays onto your face. Durrr! Cute, comfy, but not spf smart.

Returned this top. It was SUPER shiny. Too bling for me.

Almost all their product has good quality and fit my expectations. This one has material that feel like a rain coat. I was shocked when I opened the package. I had to return it to the store...

Laundered per tag. Did not work. Hung wet. Did not work. Used Bounce spray wrinkle remover. Did not work.. Gave to Goodwill. That worked.
